Italian geologist Angelo Pitoni purchased strange blue stones from a Fula Chief in Sierra Leone in West Africa. The tribe claimed the rocks came from the sky.

Pitoni returned home to Europe and brought the mysterious rocks to a university for testing.
The results showed the stones didn't match any known mineral.

The researchers couldn't explain why the rocks retained a blue color. When a small piece was pulverized and viewed under a microscope, there was no blue color visible.

Heating the stone to high temperatures would not alter the mineral. Acids would not break it down.

Further analysis showed that 77.17% of the stone was Oxygen. The remaining composition was Carbon, Calcium, and an unknown organic compound.

The age of the Sky Stones may be as much as 55 000 vears old.
